What's the license of the docx files inside test/docx

[StephanMeijer]

Hey, I am currently writing a Pandoc alternative for OOXML/Docx. Our project is licensed under EUPL-1.2. At this moment, we are using .docx documents that are licensed under various Creative Commons licenses that allow their usage in our project as test documents.

What would be the license of the docx files inside test/docx? I would love to use them.

Unless noted otherwise in COPYRIGHT, all files are licensed under GPL-2.0-or-later. You might be interested in this Q&A that explains what that means for your use case. TL;DR: use the files, it's fine.

Excellent licensing choice BTW, I'm a big fan of the EUPL.

Thanks, we are working for a government agency, so it's standard here!

Is the code already available somewhere? Do you think it could somehow be made to work with pandoc in the future?

[StephanMeijer]

Certainly! https://gitlab.com/toegang-voor-iedereen/backend/nldoc-elixir/-/tree/feature/NLD-170-docx-conversion?ref_type=heads

You can see the logic here (work in progress :))

I am open for any collaboration or integration with Pandoc where it makes sense. We have a bit of a broader specification of documents which you can find here:

Would you have time for a short (~30 min) call some time? I'd love to have a chat about that.
Please feel free to just send me an invite, my mail is in my profile.

Absolutely, I will reach out to you tomorrow or on Monday!
